A premier is chosen by majority vote of the Council.

They are required to put together a team capable of accomplishing whatever goal is given to them by the Council Hand, i.e. assassinate a specific official.

As the mission leader it will be their responsibility to ensure their team continues along the RP event at a good pace as well as driving the RP along if it begins to stall.

Requirements

At least 3 months active in the guild

Must have attended at least 10 guild events

Must demonstrate outstanding RP ability during the course of guild events. Note: This does not mean that your character is the one that talks the most during an event, but rather that you demonstrate a solid commitment to the FS mission RP and the RP you engage in advances and enhances the overall event.

Abide by the guild charter and the code of conduct

Requirements for Recruitment into the Fillorean Society

Demonstrated RP ability or a genuine wish to learn/improve

At least level 15

M.I.A.These are members who never resigned or quit from the Society but with whom we've lost contact. If they return, they are re-instated as Operatives. A member will be moved to the M.I.A. list if any of the officers note a lack of activity spanning greater than 2 weeks for which we have not received an explanation.

AltsThe Fillorean Society accepts all alts of current members. We understand that people like to RP more than one character and do our best to allow it. With that said, alts must progress through the ranks as if they were a new recruit except that you obviously don't need a separate forum account or membership information sheet. Further, no member can have more than one character at the Council Hand rank or above. If you wish to switch out which character you have in a leadership role in the guild, then your previous character would need to step down.
